Red Quartz Crystal Cluster (Ferruginous Quartz) – Tinejdad, Morocco

This natural red quartz crystal cluster from Tinejdad, Morocco, displays rich iron-oxide coloration and sparkling druzy crystal surfaces. The deep red tone results from hematite coatings and internal inclusions formed during crystal growth.

Moroccan ferruginous quartz is sought after by collectors due to its distinctive color intensity and natural crystal formations. Under direct light, scattered druzy points create exceptional brilliance and texture contrast.

This specimen stands naturally on one edge and includes an acrylic display stand, making it ready for presentation in a mineral cabinet or display setting.

Some Moroccan red quartz specimens exhibit internal zoning or phantom-like structures caused by variations in iron concentration during growth — occasionally producing clear quartz overgrowth surrounding deeper red cores.
